"We have dined at this restaurant several times over the past few years and have always had a positive experience. However, it seems that the restaurant has recently changed ownership and the new management lacks the necessary skills to run a restaurant effectively. We had difficulty booking a table over the phone as no one answered despite numerous attempts. The online booking system was also not functioning properly, so we decided to walk in. Upon arrival, the restaurant was not busy and the only waitress on duty seemed confused that we had come for dinner on a Saturday night. We had to wait for a table to be prepared as the tables and chairs were stacked in a corner, making the place look messy. The complimentary bottle of water provided had a strange taste, possibly tap water instead of filtered. The menus were dirty and sticky, not a great first impression. We ordered drinks but waited a long time for them to arrive, and no food was being served to other patrons who also seemed unhappy. Ultimately, we decided to leave without ordering food and went to another restaurant nearby. The other couple who arrived after us also left due to the poor service. The waitress seemed inexperienced and overwhelmed, and the overall experience was disappointing. We will not be returning to this restaurant. Service: Dine in Meal type: Dinner."

No toilets and the place is absolutely freezing. Waitress tried her best to meet our needs but can only do so much when the owners are clearly neglecting the place. Disappointed.

The food was delicious! I should have requested my curry to be a bit spicier, but I finished everything on my plate and in my bowl. I was unsure if the restaurant was open since there were no other customers, but the staff promptly attended to me. I would recommend this place for a satisfying meal in a timely manner.

We had a disappointing experience at The Elephant on a Friday night. We were the only customers in the restaurant and had to ask for the music to be turned on because it was so quiet. The waiter, who was also the chef for the night, took our order for drinks and food. The food took over 50 minutes to arrive, despite us asking multiple times about its status. The Eli burger we ordered turned out to be a bland coleslaw burger with excessive mayonnaise. They even ran out of rice by 7:30pm. To top it off, we found plastic in our poppadoms. The restaurant seemed to be prioritizing takeout orders, as there were numerous deliveroo drivers coming in and out. The constant opening of the door made the...

I called this place at 18.46 on 22/01/23(yesterday) and they were happy to take my order to be delivered around 17.30 the following day.(23/01/23). On the day of the delivery around 13.38 I tried to contact them to add one more item but no one would answer although the restaurant was opened. After trying few more times I gave up. Again after 16.30 I started calling them to get a confirmation from them but still nobody would answer. Since then until about 18.20 I've tried nearly 20 times . Neither there was an answer nor the food was delivered. At last when they answered the guy informed me that the person who took my order yesterday is not at work today so they can't deliver my food. The guy...
